Update Your Movie Watchlist: 5 Shows to Watch Out for on Africa Magic on GOtv
Updating your watchlist is like taking a breath of fresh air, it brings a refreshing change to your routine and breaks the cycle of shuffling through your usual shows, especially when these shows serve up hot drama, satisfying revenge plots, and comedy that can make you forget all your worries. From spicy relationship drama to schemes that keep getting messier with each episode and comedians that know exactly how to crack you up, these 5 shows on Africa Magic are bound to keep you entertained.
My Fairytale Wedding: This movie is not just star-studded but packed with jaw-dropping drama. The hot takes and conversations since its premiere have been legendary. We were promised drama, and we have not been disappointed. This drama series has everything. You’ve got Tima sneaking around with her best friend’s husband, and then there’s Moji, who found out her boo has another boo at the surprise engagement party he threw for his other girlfriend. The drama is real. Don’t miss it, showing on Sundays at 7 pm on Africa Magic Showcase GOtv channel 8.
Omera: When the series premiered, we thought it was just going to be about Omera making up for his mistakes after he sold his father’s house for a fake visa, leaving his mother and sister with nowhere to stay, and how he ends up working at his uncle’s NGO in the village to pay back his girlfriend he scammed and get back his father’s house. Little did we expect the shocking twists and turns. Instead of showing remorse, he struts around the village condescendingly, bosses around the NGO staff, cooks up another scheme, and tries to use a new project as his ticket to Canada.
Omera came back to the village to redeem himself, but from what we’re seeing, redemption is the last thing on his mind. Can he change his ways? Discover more about Omera, airing every weekday at 8 PM on Africa Magic Showcase GOtv channel 8.
10th Avenue: The things revenge can make a person do. 10th Avenue tells the story of two siblings, Malik and Efe, who move to a new community to avenge their father’s death and clear his name. They pose as a happily married couple. But one thing about revenge is that it is not always smooth sailing. Efe, while focused on avenging her father, faces a tough reality when she discovers she has cancer. Meanwhile, Malik’s journey to uncover the truth gets tangled when he falls for Kessiena, his estate neighbour, who’s more than willing to be his partner in this undercover act. If 10th Avenue is not on your watchlist, you should be having FOMO by now, as it has all the drama, twists, and turns. Catch new episodes every Thursday and Friday at 8:30 PM on Africa Magic Showcase GOtv channel 8.

Shoes are a staple of the fashion industry. Hundreds of brands exist that make and produce a wealth of shoes each year. Shoes can be stylish, comfortable, and unique, but did you know that certain shoes offer some great benefits?
Elevator shoes provide a primary advantage that many men would enjoy—the appearance of being taller. And it’s not just the appearance of height for the sake of looking taller, the benefits from the height increase of elevator shoes go beyond mere looks.
The fashion industry is always innovating—as any good industry does. One of the most regarded crazes has been guido maggi elevator shoes. They’re different from regular sneakers or loafers. Elevator shoes have a specially designed insole—that is cleverly concealed—that provides a discreet increase in height.
The height increases range from 2.5-5 inches, depending on the brand and design. Elevator shoes are not only made in one style, many variations can accommodate many social gatherings and settings.
Elevator Shoes Provide A Height Increase
One of the main benefits of elevator shoes is that they discreetly improve your height. Since the lift is hidden inside the shoe, the shoes themselves do not attract unwanted attention. These are not high-heels or platform shoes—they’re a subtle design.
Not only do they offer a height increase, but elevator shoes can also improve your stride while providing extra support. The world average height for a man is 5ft 10.5 in, while the average female height is 5ft 5 in. Some might want a little extra help to reach or surpass the average.
Some people might indeed want only a minor height increase—nothing too obvious and elevator shoes can provide that while also offering a boost of confidence.
As I said before, elevator shoes can also improve your posture. Proper posture will see your shoulders square and a more defined, straightened walking gait. The added height could also help you maintain eye contact more easily and pay closer attention to facial cues and expressions, thus improving the flow of your conversations.
Elevator Shoes Offer Comfort
Comfort is one of the main reasons people buy and wear any type of clothing. You might think that elevator shoes would be uncomfortable or that they could cause foot pain or soreness, however, neither of those is true. One of the primary goals for the design of elevator shoes was to make movements like running, walking, and hiking as easy as can be while wearing them.
In contrast, high heels can be excruciatingly painful. They offer the same height increase benefit as elevator shoes but rarely offer the same subtle design or comfort. Often, elevator shoes contain extra padding in the soles to reduce the impact on your feet when walking, jogging, or running.
As with nearly any new pair of shoes, you will need a short period to ‘break them in’ but it’s not more strenuous than any other type of shoes.

Social, short-form video content platform, TikTok has announced the launch of the second phase of its #SaferTogether digital safety and awareness programme in collaboration with the National Information Technology Development Agency (NITDA) and Data Science Nigeria (DSN).
The initiative, which began in 2022, aims to enhance digital safety across Nigeria by educating parents, teachers, and guardians on how to help young people navigate TikTok and the broader digital landscape safely.
The first phase of the #SaferTogether campaign successfully educated 537 teachers and 1,037 parents in cities like Abuja, Lagos, and Kano about TikTok’s safety features and promoting positive mental health online.
Now, building on this success, the second phase will include NITDA as a strategic partner, aligning with its mission to foster digital literacy and enhance technology infrastructure.
The company said Phase 2 will extend the programme’s reach to additional regions, including Edo and Kaduna, and will cover critical topics such as misinformation, cyberbullying, sexting, digital citizenship, fake news, child sexual violence, and data protection.
Workshops will engage a wide range of stakeholders, including civil society organizations, government representatives, community leaders, parents, teachers, and guardians.
Speaking on this development, Mr Fortune Mgwili-Sibanda, TikTok’s Government Relations and Public Policy Director for Africa, emphasized the importance of digital literacy.
“Empowering parents, teachers, and guardians with digital literacy skills is crucial for creating a safer digital environment. Our commitment to community safety is unwavering, and through local partnerships, we are extending these educational resources beyond our platform,” he said.
Adding his input, Mr Olubayo Adekanmbi, Founder and CEO of Data Science Nigeria, highlighted the shared responsibility in making the digital world safer, adding that the organisation will continue to advance this goal.
“We are excited to continue with the Safer Together campaign, providing essential insights on digital wellness to parents, teachers, and guardians.”
